In light of the Sewell vs Chase debate that is apparently still not quite dead, it made me wonder, what do you guys think Chase's stats would be or how well would Chase have played if he was drafted by Atlanta, Miami, or Detroit (the team before us and the 2 teams immediately after us in the draft)? So, say we DID pick Sewell and Chase went to another team. What do you think he looks like? Does he still look and play like not only rookie of the year, but pro bowler with elite WR numbers? Does he look more average? Does he have the some numbers as Waddle does on the Dolphins?
If we aren't going to end this "debate", then let's at least explore it from a different angle.
Personally, I contend, that while Chase would still show his skills, it's his familiarity with Burrow that's really allowed him to shine. So, while he might have better numbers than Waddle in Miami, I don't think he comes even CLOSE to what he's done here in Cincy with Burrow.
